Summary
In her moments of lucidity, Caprise Redek tells her daughter that heartbreak happens in threes. But Marella's life attracts her to the number with a curious determination: three unicorn hairs misplaced by Autumn winds, three giggly girls in a garden, three beautiful gowns, three times she falls to the ground. Before she meets Sophie Foster, her whole life might as well be chiseled and engraved with dozens of little number threes. Here are the constants in her life: she's a lonely little girl with an ear for gossip; the sky is blue; the sun is warm; when she looks to her left and to her right, she sees Biana Vacker and Maruca Chebota, like three trees growing side-by-side.
Or: the reason behind Marella's hatred of nicknames, Biana's wariness of girls, and Maruca's guarded heart.

Summary
After Sophie is banned by her parents from participating in any more wildly dangerous Black Swan stuff (because Grady and Edaline are not going to just sit by and let their daughter fight in a war), she ends up spending time with Stina, the only person she really seems to get anymore. Sophie is quietly angry. Stina is a little bit in love with her.

Summary
In which Keefe writes a series of letters and Fitz waits for him to come back. And then he does, and everything gets a whole lot worse. Replacing the events of Stellarlune but carried on a similar track.
or,
"I'm going to leave you behind," Keefe should have said. "I meant to leave my heart behind, but sewing it to Sophie's sleeve left needles in my stomach instead of butterflies." / "I know you," Fitz will say when he sees him again. "So why does it feel like you've forgotten everything I ever was?"

Summary
Fitz glanced at the picture again, then back at this Sophie--her height, how far from the other kids she stood, her quick, detailed answers…
It wasn’t possible. There was no way. And yet, as she rattled on, he ducked around a nearby exhibit wall. Opened his mind only long enough to check nobody was looking. And turned the obscurer off.
